In this Larry Chen video, we witness the grand unveiling of the TWR Super Cat, a beastly modification of the classic Jaguar XJS. This car is not your average Jag, boasting a supercharged 5.6L V12 engine churning out a staggering 660 horsepower and 550 ft-lb of torque. Designed by Kaisel, the Super Cat features a carbon-skinned body, track suspension, and widebody carbon fiber panels that scream performance. It's a tribute to the British racing heritage of TWR, with a design inspired by various iconic racing car styles.
Larry Chen, usually associated with Porsches, surprises everyone by diving headfirst into this British automotive adventure. Having a soft spot for Jaguars, Larry's involvement in this project was a dream come true. The TWR Super Cat will be a limited edition, with only 88 units set to be hand-built in the UK over the next four years. Larry eagerly anticipates getting behind the wheel of this unique creation, experiencing its power and performance firsthand.
The design of the TWR Super Cat is a blend of classic XJS elements and modern aggressive styling, paying homage to TWR's illustrious racing history. With details like a rear diffuser inspired by the XJ220 and symmetrical side exhaust exits, this car exudes elegance and power in equal measure. Larry and his team aimed to create a vehicle that captures the essence of British engineering excellence while pushing the boundaries of performance and design. The TWR Super Cat is a bold and daring interpretation of a classic, promising a driving experience like no other.
